Description Mathieu Jobin 2003-03-08 23:22:52 UTC

Version:           2.1.5 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20

shame on me.
but would it be possible to move the current stack pointer in a debugged C++ program with kdevelop ?
think about how VB works.
maybe its possible to change the call stack status ...
maybe we need a VM because the kernel protect this memory aera ?
i think it could be a very interressting features that nobody ever offered

thanks

Well this would need some major work both in kdevelop and in the tools 
available. It's a bit beyond the scope of kdevelop at this stage.
